DUI/DWI offenders in Vanceboro, NC. are occasionally given the opportunity to take part in a drug and alcohol rehab facility instead of penalties for their drug or alcohol related criminal offenses. Penalties for such offenses can occasionally be rather severe, including jail time and serious fines and other significant costs associated with being prosecuted and/or found guilty of DUI/DWI. Many times, specifically for initial offenders, the criminal justice system will decide that addressing the issues of alcohol and drug addiction in drug or alcohol rehab is a better decision in the long run for effectively addressing the issue. For DUI/DWI offenders in Vanceboro, NC. who are fortunate enough to be allowed to participate in this rehab process in lieu of other more serious consequences, many will remain away from the criminal justice system permanently.
